Ride Frequencies and Spring Rates

Problem 1: A monotube damper has a gas charge pressure of 400psig (2.758MPa) (Note: lpsi-6.895kPa). If the damper has a bore diameter of 40mm and a rod diameter of 10mm what would be the maximum compression damping force that could be safely expected of the damper? Assume the chamber above the piston would not want to get under Opsig.

Problem 2: The vehicle in Problem 3&4 of Homework 2 requires a rear coil spring design and is decided it needs a total travel of 5 inches at the wheel hub to safely traverse the road conditions it is expected to see. Using the 1.67:1 mechanical advantage design a coil spring that can fit within a design space that provides a maximum of 12cm diameter for clearance of the spring outside diameter. Using ¾ coil nest open-end construction what is free length and the-installed length at static load? Show your work. (Note: 4.448N-1lbf; 2.54cm-linch)

Problem 3: If the targeted critical damping ratio for the above suspension is determined to be 0.30, what is the target damping rate for the shock absorber that will be mounted coaxially with the spring?

Bonus Points(10): For Problem 1 - If more force is needed in compression damping what options could be used? Are there any compromises with the options?

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.

Water in a partially filled large tank is to be supplied to the roof top, which is 8 m above the water level in the tank, through a 2.2-cm-internal-diameter pipe by maintaining a constant air pressure of 300 kpa (gage) in the tank. if the head loss in the piping is 2 m of water, determine the discharge rate of the supply of water to the roof top in liters per second.
